Sony is now offering the white and black controller via the PlayStation Direct storefront in refurbished condition for $169 (a $30 discount off the regular $199 price). It includes the same one‑year warranty as a new unit, though it may exhibit minor cosmetic imperfections.

Features

Compatibility

  • Works seamlessly with the PlayStation 5.
  • Also compatible with Windows PCs.
  • Several PlayStation Studios PC titles support some of the controller’s unique features.
